Windows 10: I can't open anything that required administrator permission

When i try to open Advance System settings, a windows pop up said "Windows cannot find '%windir%\system32\systempropertiesadvanced.exe'. Make sure you typed the name correctly, and try again."


The sound icon on my taskbar shown with red X but the sound still playing and can record, although i can't change it setting and the icon in Playback/Recording tab shown as invisible.


If i try open cmd without, it fine but i can't access that can solve the issue above, and the issue i am having is whenever i try to open a file as an administrator, the folder just freeze for atleast 5 minute or so until a pop said again


"C:\Windows\System32\cmd.exe"


The system could not find the enviroment option that was entered.


Any help?

no administrator permission

Hi Ryan,

Let us assist you to have an Administrator permission. To start, follow the steps below to enable the Windows Super Administrator Account.

• Type CMD on the search box.
• CMD will appear at top.
• Right click on it, then choose Run as administrator.
• Type this command & hit Enter: Net user administrator /active:yes.
• After you enable the Super Administrator account, log out on your existing account then log into Super Administrator account.
• On the Super Administrator account, you can now create an Administrator account or give Administrator permission on the existing account.

After you created an Administrator account, we suggest that you disable the Super Administrator account by following the same steps and using this command:
Net user administrator /active:no.
